Configuring policy updates
1
Click the Services tab.

Select PolicyUpdate from the Services list.

If necessary, select Parameters from the Tasks list.

Type a timeout period in seconds for each device during a policy update.
The timeout setting for the PolicyUpdate service determines how long the system waits for a printer to respond
after it is initially connected during a policy update.
Note: If a large eSF application or several eSF applications are included with a hybrid solution, then you may
need to increase the default timeout for policy updates in order to allow enough time for policy updates that
include eSF application deployments to complete.
5
Select the Overwrite all function overrides on the device check box.
Note: If there are eSF applications installed on the device that can override the device function, then clear the
Overwrite all function overrides on the device check box. Otherwise, this setting should be selected at all times.
